The Jets and How Bad Their Season Was and What They Should Do

The Jets season crashed to an end Monday night after their atrocious performance, but that word could also be an understatement of how bad they were, it was only fitting their season ended on the mishandled snap.  Sanchez had 5 turnovers marking 50 turnovers the past 2 seasons and that is a total of 30 games in which he put up these atrocious numbers.

The Jets starting Greg McElroy is the best thing they can do to try to win the last 2 games and see what he is made of, because he is a true quarterback and Tim Tebow really isn’t.  It could be that Rex Ryan does not want to start Tebow because he is to stubborn to cave into the Tebow mania in case he wins the last 2 games , then the media and fans will begin to question why he didn’t start earlier in the year.

Now looking beyond that the Jets season has been nothing short of a disgrace and a sham, Rex Ryan said this was probably the best team he has had since coaching the Jets, and then the team claimed they would make the playoffs after the season started off on the wrong foot.  The Jets as always made a guarantee that they could not hold up, and their roster time and time again every season gets worse, this season their roster is awful as compared to Sanchez’s first season. 

The Jets need to clean house and that starts with General Manager Mike Tannenbaum and head coach Rex Ryan.  The drafting and coaching has been terrible, and Sanchez has been babied by the team and now he is ruined he has no confidence.  Once Rex and Mike are gone the team can draft players they need that are good and also make better free agency moves, the only “big” offseason move they made was trading for Tebow who has been used pathetically by the Jets.  Punt protector and a wildcat QB that ran up the middle and hasn’t scored that is a waste of talent.

Sanchez stats the past 2 season are as follows:

TD: 39

INT: 35

Rush TD: 6

Fumbles Lost: 15

Comp %: 55.87

That is 45 total touchdowns to 50 turnovers, you cannot win with a quarterback who does that especially in the AFC East, which is not easy to do.

That is 50 turnovers in 30 games, pathetic!

The Jets should also fire Tony Sparano as offensive coordinator and release or trade both Sanchez and Tebow and keep McElroy to tutor the next quarterback.

The best person to hire as a coach would be John Gruden and then sign Alex because Gruden is a QB guru and will make Alex special because Alex could be appreciated by Gruden.  The Jets should keep Holmes and Revis as well to keep veteran leadership in the locker room and make sure they can protect the pass and also to have a solid passing game.  The ground and pound is not working anymore, the NFL has caught on to the Jets way of playing, and I am glad that people are realizing how overrated the Jets are, I have said since Sanchez’s first year that he and the Jets are overrated.  Alex Smith could get it done in New York, he doesn’t make mental mistakes like Sanchez and signing him could help the team look for offensive help.

I said the Jets would win 6-7 games this season, and I think they will wind up being 6-10 or 7-9, The Chargers and Bills are the last two games, and truthfully those are winnable games, so they could finish at 8-8.  It is hard to say how these games will turn out, but the Jets are dead in the water and the QB change came way too late.

The Jets need to clean house following the last game of the year, and they desperately need a good quality QB.  I cannot remember the last time I ever thought just to myself “wow the Jets have an elite QB”, they haven’t had one in a long time if ever and certainly do not right now.  That is how you win games, Elite QB, a solid defense and a running game to help balance things out.
